DEMOCRATS HOPE IT'S CROW IN NOVEMBER

Republican John McCain's presidential campaign has turned phone banking into fun by using an Iron Chef theme. During phoning sessions, volunteers bring homemade dishes that contain a selected ingredient to the Centennial headquarters.

* This week's ingredient: Pork, selected for "Barack Obama's record of pork barrel spending."

* First week: Lemon, because of Obama's statement about "bitter" Americans from small towns who cling to "guns and religion."

* Second week: Wild game, in honor of vice presi- dential nominee, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, an avid hunter who can field dress a moose.

ADMIRAL PALIN?

"I can see the ocean from my house. Can I run the Navy?"

LET HIM RUN WALL STREET

For the 18th straight year, U.S. Sen. Wayne Allard has returned unspent money from his office budget to the treasury.

$151,210 was given back by Allard this year.

$4.6 million has been returned since the Loveland Republican's first year in Congress in 1991.

    Here at the Flying Saucer Mobile Home Park, we took a vote on "Admiral Palin." Now, bear in mind, most of these guys can't vote, but will anyway, several times. No one but Luther liked the T-shirt slogan. He liked it because he thought Palin SHOULD run the Navy.
    (He didn't understand she was running for vice president. Now he's all confused. Thanks Lynn.)
